Electrical and Thermal Properties of Cold-Sprayed Bulk Copper and Copper-Tungsten Samples at Cryogenic Temperatures

The de­vel­op­ment of high ther­mal con­duc­tiv­ity coat­ings with pure cop­per or cop­per-tung­sten alloy could be ben­e­fi­cial to im­prove the heat trans­fer of bulk Nb cav­i­ties for con­duc­tion cool­ing ap­pli­ca­tions and to in­crease the stiff­ness of bulk Nb cav­i­ties cooled by liq­uid he­lium. Cold-spray is an ad­di­tive man­u­fac­tur­ing tech­nique suit­able to grow thick coat­ings of ei­ther Cu or CuW on a Nb sub­strate. Bulk (~5 mm thick) coat­ings of Cu and CuW were de­posited on stan­dard 3 mm thick, high-pu­rity Nb sam­ples and smaller sam­ples with 2 mm x 2 mm cross sec­tion were cut for mea­sur­ing the ther­mal con­duc­tiv­ity and the resid­ual re­sis­tiv­ity ratio. The sam­ples were sub­jected to an­neal­ing at dif­fer­ent tem­per­a­tures and a max­i­mum RRR of ~130 and ~40 were mea­sured for the Cu sam­ples and CuW sam­ples, re­spec­tively.
